This is the simplest form of a cache available in regcache.  Any
registers whose default value is 0 are ignored.  If any of those
registers are modified in the future, they will be placed in the
cache on demand.  The cache layout is essentially using the provided
register defaults by the regcache core directly and does not re-map
it to another representation.

This patch introduces caching support for regmap.  The regcache API
has evolved essentially out of ASoC soc-cache so most of the actual
caching types (except LZO) have been tested in the past.

The purpose of regcache is to optimize in time and space the handling
of register caches.  Time optimization is achieved by not having to go
over a slow bus like I2C to read the value of a register, instead it is
cached locally in memory and can be retrieved faster.  Regarding space
optimization, some of the cache types are better at packing the caches,
for e.g. the rbtree and the LZO caches.  By doing this the sacrifice in
time still wins over doing I2C transactions.

Copy over the read parts of the ASoC debugfs implementation into regmap,
allowing users to see what the register values the device has are at
runtime. The implementation, especially the support for seeking, is
mostly due to Dimitris Papastamos' work in ASoC.

There are many places in the tree where we implement register access for
devices on non-memory mapped buses, especially I2C and SPI. Since hardware
designers seem to have settled on a relatively consistent set of register
interfaces this can be effectively factored out into shared code.  There
are a standard set of formats for marshalling data for exchange with the
device, with the actual I/O mechanisms generally being simple byte
streams.

We create an abstraction for marshaling data into formats which can be
sent on the control interfaces, and create a standard method for
plugging in actual transport underneath that.

This is mostly a refactoring and renaming of the bottom level of the
existing code for sharing register I/O which we have in ASoC. A
subsequent patch in this series converts ASoC to use this.  The main
difference in interface is that reads return values by writing to a
location provided by a pointer rather than in the return value, ensuring
we can use the full range of the type for register data.  We also use
unsigned types rather than ints for the same reason.

As some of the devices can have very large register maps the existing
ASoC code also contains infrastructure for managing register caches.
This cache work will be moved over in a future stage to allow for
separate review, the current patch only deals with the physical I/O.
